I would like to create a scrollable screen in text mode, like the one obtained when typing help(object) in the interpreter. Is there a cross-platform module I can use to easily implement this?

I'm writing a program which reads text from a file, and determines the number of sentences, words, and syllables of that file. The trick is, it must only read one character a time, and work with that. Which means it can't just store the whole file in an array. So, with that in mind, heres how my program works: while(character != EOF) {...

Hi there! I need to draw some text on my Canvas, and I'd really avoid hardcoding some particular text size. Is there some standard way to find a default text size (and other properties) used in the OS? So far I found only TextView.setTextAttributes(context, resId) to which I can pass R.android.attr.textAppearance. But the thing is th...

I can probably create 2 variabiles for this... How can this be done? I've tried several ways trying the $(this).val(text.substr(0...

First off, I'm a complete beginner. That said, I thought an ambitious longer-term project/learning experience would be to create an app that displayed daily quotes, like those cheesy day-by-day calendars our grandmothers have in their bathrooms. I want it to have two per day, each one represented by a tab in a UISegmentedControl. That...
I want to detect words in text, i.e. I need to know which characters in a given text are letters, that is they can be part of a (spoken) word and which are, on the other hand, punctuation and such. For example, in the above sentence, "I", "want" and "i" and "e" are words in this regard, while spaces, "." and comma are not. The difficul...
